Le domaine de Mafate
About
Found on Réunion, Le domaine de Mafate occupies Plateau Cerf, Roche Plate Mafate, La Possession 97419, deep within the island's mountainous interior. Reaching it means travelling into the highlands rather than along the coast.
As a guest house, it provides overnight accommodation in the Mafate cirque, an area cut off from the island's road network. A rating of 4.9 out of 5 from 407 reviews places it among the most reviewed guest houses on Réunion. Its Facebook page at facebook.com/profile.php carries further details for those planning a stay.
First-time visitors should expect a mountain refuge with basic comforts, reached on foot rather than by car. Because Réunion has no railway, travel around the island depends on roads and buses, and the last stretch into Mafate is walked.
The island's highlands hold endemic plants and birds, and its coastal waters have coral reefs. Cyclone season runs from November to April, so travellers often plan highland stays outside that window. Saint-Denis, on the northern coast, is the island's main arrival point, and the coastal road links it to towns such as Saint-Paul and Saint-Gilles-les-Bains.
